The Arts House

The Arts House The Antigonish Art Fair presents a set of five events celebrating the artists of Nova Scotia.

The Antigonish Art Fair is a non-profit organization which has three simple goals. First we work to support new artists, of all ages, in our community. Secondly, we aim to build a reputation as being the cultural centre of eastern Nova Scotia. Finally, the Art Fair works to bring more activity to downtown Antigonish. We also provide a place to create and attend classes and workshops through The Arts House. See here for a list of upcoming classes and workshops: https://theartshouse.corsizio.com/
